Dang Junzhang's bribery case: Late emergence of exculpatory evidence and over 3,000 letters of complaint

The case of Dang Junzhang, a former general manager of the Financial Markets Department of China Post Savings Bank, has drawn attention from the financial community. The case involves a 700 million yuan securities fraud dispute and has been marred by allegations of torture, forced confessions, and procedural irregularities. Recently, new evidence has emerged in the second trial, including a "self-clearing book" and a letter of complaint written by Dang Junzhang during his detention, which were not presented during the first trial. The defense has requested that the court exclude illegal evidence, summon key witnesses, and retry the case in a different court. The case has sparked widespread discussion in the financial community, with some seeing it as a manifestation of the "central-local struggle" between China Post Savings Bank and Huatai Securities. The family of Dang Junzhang has submitted over 3,000 letters of complaint to various authorities, including the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Supreme People's Court, and has requested that the case be retried or that Dang Junzhang be declared not guilty. The second trial of the case is ongoing, with the court having extended the trial period to September 22.
